Indeed. Let’s review: Sandra Fluke “testifies” before a pseudo-Congressional committee about the hardship of law school stew-dents having to purchase their own contraceptives. Rushbo, that lovable little fluff-ball, calls her a “slut” and a “prostitute” thereby creating a firestorm of social media outrage followed closely by a boycott of Rush’s sponsors. Rush apologizes. Which leads me to the question of the hour:
WHAT WOULD BREITBART DO?
I believe he already told us, in his second to last tweet:
Or maybe he’d apologize the way Judge Bean did for a similar offense:
Or maybe he’d apologize the same way Sarah Palin’s “critics” apologized for calling her the c-word. Oh wait! They didn’t! Because, I guess, it’s appropriate to attack conservative women with every vile name and epithet they can creatively come up with, and wish that they and their family suffer great bodily harm up to and including death. Because they’re mean or something (conservative women, I mean: NOT their critics).
I’m sure he would revel in Issa’s letter to the Oversight Committee Democrats’ who demanded that Issa demand an apology from Rush.
Perhaps he would wonder if $3000 for 3 years worth of contraceptives for a female law stew-dent wasn’t a reflection of the excesses of liberalism, rather than wondering if this was another indication of how women are victimized by conservatives in our culture.
Or maybe he would observe that in order to more accurately reflect the net cost of her contraceptive bill for the 3 years of law school she should offset the $3000 by the price of all the free dinners and drinks she got during that same time period. If so, this may well end up as another one of the zero sum games that libs seem to love and support.
And Breitbart may have noted that if Fluke didn’t get any free drinks and dinner before needing to use her contraception supplies (that she paid for herself), she doesn’t really deserve the space she’s taking up in law school anyway.
And maybe (I HOPE) he would recommend you read Dewey’s post: Political Theatre and the Fluke Files on what’s really going on here. He may note that Liberals are uncannily adroit at finessing their opponents issues – often creating red herring or straw man arguments around them. Their tactic is to circumscribe all of the acceptable terms of the argument, whip it into an emotional frenzy, ward off all rational discussion by demonizing its opponents as Neanderthals and, finally, announce the position as official dogma. That clears the way for the MSM’s cabal of talking heads to take over and spew the talking points everywhere, just as Alinsky imagined.
The one thing Breitbart assuredly would NOT do is ignore this weak cheese.
IMPORTANT CLOSING NOTE: BigFurHat, of iOwnTheWorld, created this graphic along with several others. He has negotiated a deal with the owner of Anthem Studios (a personal friend of Breitbart) to produce and sell “Breitbart Is Here” t-shirts and bumper stickers, with all profits going to the Breitbart family.
I put a link to the “BIS” store in my side bar over there on the RIGHT. Use it to help Breitbart continue to take care of his family. If you’re a blogger, you can help by snagging a copy of the “BIS” graphic and store link and posting it on your blog.
Until further notice Big Guy’s weekly addresses will be unpaid campaign messages. So for now our informal “No bad news Monday thru Friday” policy has been revised to “No bad news Monday thru Saturday.”
“The good news is, we’ve been making progress. Take a look at this chart. Six years ago, 60% of the oil we used was imported. Since I took office, America’s dependence on foreign oil has decreased every single year. In fact, in 2010, for the first time in thirteen years, less than half the petroleum we consumed was imported. Part of that is because we’re producing more oil here at home than at any time in the last eight years.” Weekly Address, March 4,2012
My Little Goat?
I hate to do this, again,
Big Guy’s favorite new “good news” chart
butt we’re going to have to do the math here before the Republicans do it for us. So stay with me here: when domestic production goes up, (thanks to the frackin’ oil companies, no thanks to our anti-drilling policy) and total oil demand goes down (because the economy stinks), well, you don’t need to import as much foreign oil anymore, hence the percentage of foreign oil goes down. Get it?
US crude imports have fallen to their lowest level for a decade as a result of weak demand and growth in domestic production…
Butt no matter how many times I explain this to the smartest man ever elected to the presidency of the United States, Big Guy still insists that his chart will persuade the children that things are good.
D.C. gas prices on Friday. Stay tuned for Monday’s numbers.
He may be right. So far the wizards of the West Wing have applied the same mathemagics to unemployment to persuade the little people who are just waiting for a fair shot that we’re in a recovery.
Butt because there is so much evidence to the contrary we needed to get a little more creative here and the mathemagicians came through for us. We’ve got a ton of new tricks up our sleeve to make this mess look like news. Here are just a few:
Drop the number of people “officially” in the labor force:
The very weak recovery means the official unemployment rate is an unreliable barometer of the labor market. People are only counted as unemployed if they have been actively looking for work in the past four weeks. It is good news when the number of unemployed falls due to more hires. It is not so good if the number falls due to people giving up looking for work.
While 1.66 million net jobs have been added during the Obama "recovery,” over that same time the number of working age Americans not in the labor force rose by 7.14 million. There is no comparable post-World War II "recovery" where this type of exodus has occurred.
Do “seasonal adjustments” advantageously:
It’s useful to try accounting for the well-known layoffs that occur at different times of the year, such as right after Christmas, but how you make the adjustment is important…
The big news this month was that “seasonally adjusted” payroll employment increased by 243,000 in January. Yet, the “unadjusted” or actual raw totals showed a loss of 2.7 million jobs.
Calculate the number of “jobs created” on a bogus assumption:
But the “below 400,000” rule only makes sense if new hiring parallels growth during past recoveries. [ed. they don’t]
Set the floor a little lower:
the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) has collected data on new hires since December 2000. From that date to the recent recession, 5.2 million Americans were hired on average each month. The recession dropped this number substantially, with the average falling to 4.3 million hires per month. In December 2008, just before Obama took office, only 4.1 million Americans were hired.
But hiring has fallen even further during the “recovery” -- falling to an average of just 3.9 million per month. The number of hires was still stuck at 3.9 million during the last month for which data are available, December 2011.
And just like that, voila! High-fives all around! Big Guy get’s Bush’s economy out of the ditch!
It’s good to be the Won – you can be innovative and unconstrained by the rules of physics:
Still in search of the perpetual motion machine: until then, gotta plug it into something
Or math:
Forecasting the number of people employed by focusing on workers filing for unemployment insurance is like guessing a pool’s water level by measuring how much flows out but ignoring the rate at which water is being added.
Math: It’s more of a concept than a hard and fast rule
Tune in later when we’ll deconstruct the mathemagicals involved in Big Guy’s incredible shrinking inflation rate too!
Until then, I leave you with this perennial partisan question: which fairy tale scenario would you prefer?
Once upon a time in America
or,
Once upon a time in an Amerika…
Oh – and more good news: Since Big Guy took office and started giving reading demonstrations several times a week, our national readin’ scores seem to be going up. ‘Rithmetic, not so much. Maybe we can work on that next term.
After 4 years of near constant exposure, we’re seeing a few signs that the American people might be suffering a little “Lady M Fabulosity” fatigue. Which is understandable. There’s just so much to admire.
So even though we’re re-launching our weekly MSM “Lady Obama” series, we’re being mindful not to overdo it. On the one hand, we don’t want to overwhelm anyone, butt on the other, we don’t want anyone to forget about Lady M’s fabulosity either. It’s a fine line, butt I think you’ll agree that Mary Mitchell hit the sweet spot:
Although you can’t really say Obama gave white Americans its first close-up of the accomplished black woman outside of Hollywood (that distinction goes to former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice).
Really? Condi was accomplished? Nobody in the MSM sure seemed to think so when she was serving as Secretary of State for you-know-who. And she was thefirst accomplished black woman? Really!!? Because I’ve known a lot of other accomplished black women besides Condi (and Lady M, of course).
Dr. Mae Jemison
Butt I guess doctors, business women and scientists are not as accomplished as Harvard trained lawyers.
But Obama showcased a multi-faceted black woman too often ignored. The Harvard-educated wife and mother is both glamorous and practical.
Her glamorous side has earned her a spot on the world’s best-dressed list, and among the nation’s elite trendsetters.
Her ability to keep it real, even under the brightest spotlight, has drawn criticism from some whites.
For instance, a photograph of the first lady in Bermuda shorts taken when she was returning to the White House from a family vacation was seized upon by her critics.
But black women likely saw the attire for what it was: practical.
We’re all about Practical
Michelle Obama makes black women feel more comfortable being black women.
Obama seems to have done what Oprah Winfrey and others successful black celebrities could not: She has elevated black women in their own eyes.
Despite being bombarded with skinny images, such as Angelina Jolie’s emaciated arms, the poll found that black women, though heavier, are happier with their bodies than white women…
Michelle Obama might not be able to change the image of black women, but she certainly has made them more visible.
Sometimes, waaaaayyyyy more visible!
So there you have it, Lady M: doing the work that Oprah couldn’t. Since our work on self esteem is done, MO can now turn her focus back to her real passions: Military Families and No Child’s Fat Behind. And fundraising, of course, as apparently they go hand in hand:
Michelle Obama’s efforts today, meeting with young people and military families about the issues that are close to her heart, were most likely part of a strategy to maintain the slight margin Obama enjoys in the state before a Republican nominee is announced.
So yesterday was a busy day, between greeting military families at the Raleigh-Durham Airport:
Now that’s an impressive black woman! In the uniform.
- and hugging our fat kids behinds:
Following her own motto, Obama joined forces with Democratic Senator Kay Hagen as the children from two Charlotte primary schools competed in a relay. She threw balls to the children and hugged them after the event.
while MOvin’ all over the place,
The First lady concluded her trip with a visit to the Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association basketball tournament. At the event, she promoted her program “Let’s Move!” an effort launched by Obama to target childhood obesity by bringing together teachers, doctors, nurses and parents.
Check out these postmodern Hammertime pants! Tres chic & fashion forward!
Obama continued her North Carolina trip with a fundraising luncheon, thrown in support of her husband’s campaign. The audience, mostly women, gave an enthusiastic standing ovation when she mentioned that her husband had signed the Lilly Ledbetter Equal Pay Act of 2009…
According to The Republic[ed., another story in the Lady Obama Fabulosity series] the first lady went on to tell the story of her husband’s grandmother becoming the vice president of a community bank through her hard work and determination, only to “hit that glass ceiling.” For Barack, stressed Michelle, “this issue is not abstract.”
The stump speech was very special, touting all the important accomplishments of Big Guy so far so nobody forgets: the Lilly Ledbetter bill, passing Obamacare, saving the auto industry, getting us out of the ditch, out of Iraq, yada yada yada. By now Lady M knows her stump speech by heart and hardly even needs TOTUS TOO’S support anymore.
Obama walked to midcourt and addressed the crowd about her national anti-obesity campaign. She touted basketball as a way to keep active.
“There’s no better way than basketball to illustrate the point (of staying healthy.) We are a basketball family and my husband is a crazy fanatic about basketball,” she said.
That probably explains why Lady M let’s Big Guy watch ESPN whenever he can: working out with her in the morning, late at night while reading briefings, or in between stressful meetings in the middle of the day. Even George W. Bush never had permission to do that.
“Later Bobby, I’ve got to see if I’ve covered my spread.”
While his Republican rivals are out tearing one another to pieces, and focusing on more conservative media outlets and Fox News, the president is expanding his reach to American voters in just such venues.
Keep it up, R-words, and it won’t matter where the economy goes because Big Guy will finesse you in the paint.
Big Guy returned to the Eastern Front yesterday to speak to the troops:
Neither rain nor snow nor dark of night will keep BO from his appointed rounds…
…or his Obots from theirs
Before dropping in to rally the New York bundlers at 4 (four! in one day!) WTF fund raisers (current count:103. “We’re #1! We’re #1!”), Big Guy did a stop-over in New Hampshire first to inspire the troops and encourage them to continue the good fight against our common enemy: Big Oil.
[Oil] companies are making record profits right now -- tens of billions of dollars a year. Every time you go to the gas tank or fill up your gas tank, they’re making money. Every time. Now, does anyone really think that Congress should give them another $4 billion this year? Of course not. It’s outrageous. It’s inexcusable. And I am asking Congress -- eliminate this oil industry giveaway right away. I want them to vote on this in the next few weeks
Big Guy would prefer to spend that $4 billion Big Oil subsidy on alternative energy companies. The only problem: so far his green energy company lotto picks have issued more pink slips than green jobs.
Since so many of the losers innovators we’ve backed are going bankrupt and/or laying off most of their employees, (Ener1, A123 Systems, Fisker Automotive, Tesla Motors, Solyndra, Beacon Power, Amonix, National Renewable Energy Lab and Spectrawatt, to name a few.) we might have to consider a new method for awarding those Department of Energy grants. Maybe a lottery.
BO’s New Big Green Lottery Machine
Maybe that will improve the odds of success. So far we’re a little behind the 8-ball: our picks have racked up losses of at least $2.7 billion. (Which is why we need that $4 billion back from the Big Oil companies – to spread the wealth around.)
Dr. Chu’s Department of Energy Grant and Loan Center: losses backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government (that’s you and me, baby!)
Touting his push for a clean energy economy, Obama said Abound would "manufacture advanced solar panels at two new plants, creating more than 2,000 construction jobs and 1,500 permanent jobs" at plants in Indiana and Colorado. July 3, 2010
"The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the force." h/t Darth Vader
Now that Abound has run out of other people’s money though, it looks like they’re on the same glide path as Solyndra, laying off 70% of their employees ahead of the inevitable crash and burn. Butt here’s some good news: we’ve finally found something that we can give the Do-nothing Congress credit for!
White House Press Secretary Jay Carney highlighted the role of Congress in the loan program when asked about the Abound Solar layoffs yesterday. "I would refer you to the Department of Energy for specifics about any particular loan," Carney told ABC's Jake Tapper during the press briefing. "I would say broadly that it is inherent within these kinds of investments that there is risk, and Congress recognized that risk, which is why they put aside $10 billion in loan lost reserves when they created the program." March 1, 2012
The good news is that now that Abound’s essentially shutting down, investor (and Big Guy bundler) Pat Stryker can get back out on the fund raising trail and raise some more money for WTF.
Anyhoo, getting back to Big Guy’s populist class warfront against Big Oil: He just wants everyone to play by the same rules in order to give everyone a fair shot at paying their fair share.
Your fair share is going up
I’m just not sure how “taxing the Big Oil companies more” is going to achieve his objectives. I don’t know where Big Guy went to Business School (oh that’s right, he didn’t) butt where I went to business school they taught that there’s really no such thing as a “corporate” tax: they all get passed on to consumers. How’s that going to lower prices at the gas tank? (Oh! I forgot: that’s not really our objective.)
I guess our real objective is to reduce our dependence on foreign oil. By not drilling in America. Or something. Whatever, it appears to be working as Big Guy demonstrated with visual aides at yesterday’s New Hampshire luv-in and troop morale booster:
Here - in case you can’t see that from the back row of the audience:
We couldn’t hold a parade for our brave soldiers returning from the Iraq warfront because we were afraid that would rile up our antagonists, and we’d have to issue another apology. No, silly; I’m not talking about the Taliban (one apology a week is positively Big Guy’s limit on that). No, I’m talking about Big Guy’s other antagonists: the anti-war combatants. Not that there are that many of them:
The only anti-war “rally” covered by the MSM since Big Guy occupied the Big White
Butt they have been getting feisty and there’s really no point in stirring them up. They’re still demanding that Big Guy come through on his promise to close Gitmo. And since Big Guy discovered he can’t release, relocate or place in witness protection all of the detainees (604 have already been released, butt that’s not enough: there are still 171 left) he tried to placate the “Close Gitmo Now!” club by building the remaining guys a new soccer field for $750,000.
I sure hope that makes them (the anti-Gitmo crowd) happy because they’ve been threatening to form a coalition with our Greenies – who are also threatening to leave the reservation.
Or at least to occupy the reservation by sitting out the next election all together – which won’t help us at all.
Greenies waiting for the devastating effects of global warming: and they’re not voting until all domestic production is completely shut down.
So, in lieu of a big showy parade we had a formal dinner for the warriors (or survivors) returning from the 10 year Iraq war at the Big White last night. Of course, we weren’t able to invite everyone who served (or died for) our country with valor in Iraq. So we just had a cozy little dinner for 100 representatives from the ranks of all the military services, plus their guests. So wow! That was, like, what - 200 people for dinner!
Any old excuse will do for a new Jason Wu ball gown
To express the country’s gratitude, we even served up some “occasional treats” that Lady M doesn’t normally allow:
I know, I know: some people think a good way to start would be to stop apologizing to the Taliban for what our military members do in war zones that offends their cultural sensitivities. Butt there are just so many rules and nuances regarding their sensitivities. Take burning for instance:
Offensive: burning Korans
Not Offensive: burning Christians, U.S. soldiers and contractors:
[note: images self-censored due to their offensiveness to the majority of Americans. Which doesn’t count in this discussion, butt still.]
Anyway, I’m sure the troops understand why Big Guy apologized: he was just trying to calm things down. And as he told Bob Woodruff, he thinks it worked pretty well.
Everyone seemed to be losing enthusiasm as the speech droned on.
and on
He even gave himself a headache:
From now on, we’re steering clear of the War on Terror – that seems to upset so many of Big Guy’s supporters – and stick with our Class War. That’s something we can all get behind. YES WE CAN!
We've lost a great and fearless leader, but the battle to reclaim our country and culture continues. No single person can possibly fill Andrew's shoes, so it will take all of us, working together, harder than ever. His spirit will guide us to victory.

Even USA Today has noticed that Big Guy’s public appearances are morphing into campaign speeches.
The Shadow Speech Speaker
In his remarks yesterday to the United Auto Workers, Obama discussed the rescue of the car industry while taking more than a few shots at Republican opponent Mitt Romney -- though aides later insisted it was not a campaign speech.
So that’s that, it was not a campaign speech. Just a little “I loves me some UAW” kind of speech. Allow me to deconstruct:
It is always an honor to spend time with folks who represent the working men and women of America.
It’s unions like yours that fought for jobs and opportunity for generations of American workers… It's unions like yours that forged the American middle class -- that great engine of prosperity, the greatest that the world has ever known.
How’s that Union representation working out for you, Detroit?
So you guys helped to write the American story. And today, you’re busy writing a proud new chapter.
Abandoned auto factory in Detroit: end of the assembly line
Take a minute and think about what you and the workers and the families that you represent have fought through. A few years ago, nearly one in five autoworkers were handed a pink slip -- one in five. Four hundred thousand jobs across this industry vanished the year before I took office. [ed. 1.7 million net jobs lost in America since then, butt we’re no longer counting] And then as the financial crisis hit with its full force, America faced a hard and once unimaginable reality, that two of the Big 3 automakers -- GM and Chrysler -- were on the brink of liquidation.
So instead of letting them go into regular bankruptcy where everyone is forced to play by the same rules, Big Guy arranged a bailout in exchange for a structured bankruptcy, where the UAW got a fair shake (bond holders, not so much, butt then they’re the fat cats, right?) And it only cost taxpayers $23.6 billion, so far.
So we could have kept giving billions of dollars of taxpayer dollars to automakers without demanding the real changes or accountability in return that were needed
Autographed Chevy Volt: “This isn’t the car we wanted to build, it’s the car America had to build …” Big Guy said so.
But that wouldn’t have solved anything in the long term. Sooner or later we would have run out of money.[ed. Didn’t Lady Thatcher make that same observation once?] We could have just kicked the problem down the road. The other option was to do absolutely nothing and let these companies fail. And you will recall there were some politicians who said we should do that.
You remember that? (Applause.) You know. (Laughter.) Think about what that choice would have meant for this country, if we had turned our backs on you, if America had thrown in the towel, if GM and Chrysler had gone under. The suppliers, the distributors that get their business from these companies, they would have died off.
Then even Ford could have gone down as well. Production shut down. Factories shuttered. Once-proud companies chopped up and sold off for scraps.
I’m sure glad that didn’t happen
More than one million Americans across the country would have lost their jobs in the middle of the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression.
Like I said, I’m sure glad that didn’t happen
Their livelihoods were at stake as well.
These jobs are worth more than just a paycheck. They’re a source of pride. They’re a ticket to a middle-class life that make it possible for you to own a home and raise kids and maybe send them -- yes -- to college. (Applause.) Give you a chance to retire with some dignity and some respect. These companies are worth more than just the cars they build. They’re a symbol of American innovation and know-how.
They're the source of our manufacturing might. If that’s not worth fighting for, what's worth fighting for? [ed. The Constitution?]
So, no, we were not going to take a knee and do nothing. We were not going to give up on your jobs and your families and your communities. So in exchange for help, we demanded responsibility. We said to the auto industry, you're going to have to truly change, not just pretend like you're changing.
Big Guy squeezes into the car that “America had to build”
We got the industry to retool and restructure, and everybody involved made sacrifices.[ed. butt some made bigger sacrifices than others] Everybody had some skin in the game. And it wasn’t popular. And it wasn’t what I ran for President to do. That wasn’t originally what I thought I was going to be doing as President. (Laughter.) But you know what, I did run to make the tough calls and do the right things --
Yeah, give me the Giants in the Super Bowl, even up
And I want you to know, you know why I knew this rescue would succeed?
AUDIENCE MEMBER: How did you do it? (Laughter.)
THE PRESIDENT: You want to know? It wasn’t because of anything the government did.[ed. It never is] It wasn’t just because of anything management did.[ed. especially after we changed all the management.] It was because I believed in you. I placed my bet on the American worker. (Applause.) And I’ll make that bet any day of the week. (Applause.)
Yeah, Nancy, put me in for $89 billion on the UAW
And now, three years later -- three years later, that bet is paying off -- not just paying off for you, it’s paying off for America. Three years later, the American auto industry is back. (Applause.) GM is back on top as the number-one automaker in the world --
All told, the entire industry has added more than 200,000 new jobs over the past two and a half years -- 200,000 new jobs. And here’s the best part -- you’re not just building cars again; you’re building better cars. [ed. Again, using government standards.] (Applause.)
Thanks to the bipartisan trade agreement I signed into law -- with you in mind, working with you -- there will soon be new cars in the streets of South Korea imported from Detroit and from Toledo and from Chicago. [ed. Since they won’t buy them in Detroit, Toledo or Chicago.] (Applause.)
And today -- I talked about this at the State of the Union, we are doing it today -- I am creating a Trade Enforcement Unit that will bring the full resources of the federal government to bear on investigations,[ed. Yay! Another Federal Agency! And Czar!] and we're going to counter any unfair trading practices around the world, including by countries like China. (Applause.) America has the best workers in the world. When the playing field is level, nobody will beat us. And we're going to make sure that playing field is level. (Applause.)
I’ll just bow over until we’re level
Because America always wins when the playing field is level. And because everyone came together and worked together, the most high-tech, fuel-efficient, good-looking cars in the world are once again designed and engineered and forged and built -- not in Europe, not in Asia -- right here in the United States of America. (Applause.)
Consumer’s Report #1 car: Subaru Impreza
I’ve seen it at GM’s Lordstown plant in Ohio -- (applause) -- where workers got their jobs back to build the Chevy Cobalt, and at GM’s Hamtramck plant in Detroit -- (applause) -- where I got to get inside a brand-new Chevy Volt fresh off the line -- even though Secret Service wouldn’t let me drive it. (Laughter.) But I liked sitting in it. (Laughter.) It was nice. I'll bet it drives real good. (Laughter.) And five years from now when I’m not President anymore, I’ll buy one and drive it myself. [ed. we’ll probably still have that one you autographed] (Applause.) Yes, that's right
And then there was room for a little bit of class warfare:
Or you've got folks saying, well, the real problem is -- what we really disagreed with was the workers, they all made out like bandits -- that saving the auto industry was just about paying back the unions. Really? (Laughter.) I mean, even by the standards of this town, that’s a load of you know what. (Laughter.)
And we all know it takes a big pile of you know what to produce these apples
…before we got around to talking about “values.”
Let me tell you, I keep on hearing these same folks talk about values all the time. You want to talk about values? Hard work -- that’s a value.
Bo, workin’ it – hard. It’s a value.
Looking out for one another -- that’s a value.
Bibe Netanyahu, friendless in Washington
The idea that we're all in it together, and I'm my brother's keeper and sister's keeper -- that’s a value.
They think the best way to help families afford health care is to roll back the reforms we passed that’s already lowering costs for millions of Americans. (Applause.)
Oh oh! How’s that lower premium stuff working out for you?
They want to go back to the days when insurance companies could deny your coverage or jack up your rates whenever and however they pleased.
Oh oh, again!Big Guy isn’t cutting healthcare benefits for active duty and retired US military is he? While leaving unionized civilian defense workers untouched. Is he?
They think we should keep cutting taxes for those at the very top, for people like me, even though we don’t need it, just so they can keep paying lower tax rates than their secretaries.
Big Guy’s secretary just finds out she’s paying more in taxes than her boss
Once upon a time in an Amerika…
